I was so, so excited to go to Greenland. I knew there wouldn't be much to do there, but I mean, who goes there? We got a nice little surprise after they cancelled Belfast and Iceland on us- they announced that we were going to do some un-planned cruising in the southern fjords. Kevin and I woke up to an announcement that we were passing a huge iceberg early in the morning, and we could see it right out our window. It was so strange though. I had no idea how big it was. Being on the boat, I didn't have any size perception. Was it the size of a car, or the size of a 10 story building? We passed many icebergs as the day went on, and caught one with a seal on it. My problem with that was that I didn't know how big the seal was. Considering the fact I thought it was a bird at first, I'm assuming the iceberg was pretty large.
It was just a beautiful afternoon sitting outside the town of Narssaq. People were out and about on the boat, and we ran into a few people who had become our "cruise friends" to enjoy some time with. It was so nice to know that the next morning we were going to wake up and be able to spend the day exploring on shore (in a different area).
You can kind of tell how large the one iceberg is in the last photo. That is a boat riding around it to the left.
